Safety Requirements
ARRIS Telephony Modems comply with the applicable requirements for
performance, construction, labeling, and information when used as
outlined below:
The Telephony Modem is designed to be connected directly to
a telephone.
Connecting the Telephony Modem to the home's existing tele-
phone wiring should only be performed by a professional in-
staller.
Do not use product near water (i.e. wet basement, bathtub,
sink or near a swimming pool, etc.), to avoid risk of electrocu-
tion.
Avoid using and/or connecting the equipment during an electri-
cal storm, to avoid risk of electrocution.
Do not locate the equipment within 6 feet (1.9 m) of a flame or
ignition source, to avoid damage or injury from battery explo-
sion (i.e. heat registers, space heaters, fireplaces, etc.).
Use only power supply and power cord included with the equip-
ment.
Equipment should be installed near the power outlet and should
be easily accessible.The RF drop cable’s shield must be ground-
ed at the building/residence either close to the point of en-
trance or at the point of attachment. It should be grounded as
close as practical to the building/residence AC ground to mini-
mize grounding connector length and thereby limit the poten-
tial voltage differences between the cable TV coaxial cable and
other grounding systems. Refer to the individual country’s Na-
tional Electric Code for further details.
In areas of high surge events or poor grounding situations and
areas prone to lightning strikes, additional surge protection
may be required (i.e. PF11VNT3 from American Power Conver-
sion) on the AC, RF, Ethernet and Phone lines.
When the embedded multimedia terminal adapter (EMTA) is
connected to a local computer through USB or Ethernet cables,
the computer must be properly grounded to the building/resi-
dence AC ground network. All plug-in cards within the comput-
er must be properly installed and grounded to the computer
frame per the manufacturer’s specifications.
CAUTION
Connecting the Telephony Modem to the home's
existing telephone wiring should only be performed
by a professional installer. Physical connections to
the previous telephone provider must be removed
and the wiring must be checked; there must not be
any voltages. Cancellation of telephone service is not
adequate. Failure to do so may result in loss of
service and/or permanent damage to the EMTA.

Items You Need
If you are installing the Telephony Modem yourself, make sure you have the follow-
ing items on hand before continuing:
Telephony modem package: see What’s in the Box?
for a list of items in
the package.
Coaxial cable (coax): as shown in the image to the left, this is a thin cable
with a connector on each end. It is the same kind of wire used to connect
to your television for cable TV. You can buy coax from any electronics retailer
and many discount stores; make sure it has connectors on both ends. There
are two types of connectors, slip-on and screw-on; the screw-on connectors
are best for use with your Telephony Modem. The coax should be long
enough to reach from your Telephony Modem to the nearest cable outlet.
Phone Cable: as shown in the image to the left, this is a standard phone
cable with standard phone connectors (RJ11 type) on both ends. You can
buy phone cables from any electronics retailer and many discount stores.
Splitter (optional): provides an extra cable connection by splitting a single
outlet into two. You may need a splitter if you have a TV already connected
to the cable outlet that you want to use. You can buy a splitter from any
electronics retailer and most discount stores; you may also need a short
piece of coaxial cable (with connectors); use it to connect the splitter to the
cable outlet and then connect the Telephony Modem and TV to the splitter.
Note: A splitter effectively cuts the signal in half and sends each half to its
two outputs. Using several splitters in a line may deteriorate the quality of
your television, telephone, and/or internet connection.
Information packet: your cable company should furnish you with a packet
containing information about your service and how to set it up. Read this
information carefully and contact your cable company if you have any ques-
tions.

Safety Started Installation Installation Drivers Configuration Usage Troubleshooting Glossary
Ethernet or USB?
There are two ways to connect your computer (or other equipment) to the Telepho-
ny Modem. The following will help you decide which is best for you:
Ethernet
Ethernet is a standard method of connecting two or more computers into a Local
Area Network (LAN). Use the Ethernet connection if your PC has built-in Ethernet
hardware, does not use Windows, or you want to share the Telephony Modem con-
nection with several computers.
Note: To connect two or more computers to the Ethernet port, you will need a
hub or broadband router (available at computer retailers).
The Telephony Modem package comes with a 6-foot (1.9m) Ethernet cable (the
connectors look like wide telephone connectors); you can purchase more cables if
necessary at a computer retailer. If you are connecting the Telephony Modem di-
rectly to a PC, or to an Ethernet hub or broadband router with a cross-over switch,
ask for Category 5 (CAT5) straight-through cable. If you are connecting the Tele-
phony Modem to an Ethernet hub or broadband router without a crossover switch,
ask for a Category 5 crossover cable.
USB
USB (Universal Serial Bus) is meant for connecting a variety of accessories, such
as keyboards, mice, printers, and communications devices (including Telephony
Modems) to a single PC. Use the USB connection if you have only one computer,
and the computer is using a Windows operating system (Windows 98 Second Edi-
tion or later), and has no built-in Ethernet hardware. The Telephony Modem pack-
age comes with a 5-foot (1.6m) USB cable.
Both
If you have two or more computers, you can connect one computer to the Telepho-
ny Modem’s USB port and one or more other computers to the Ethernet port. To
connect two or more computers to the Ethernet port, you will need a hub or broad-
band router (available at computer retailers).
For more information about connecting two or more computers, contact your cable
service provider.

What About Security?
Having a high-speed, always-on connection to the Internet requires a certain
amount of responsibility to other Internet users—including the need to maintain a
reasonably secure system. While no system is 100% secure, you can use the fol-
lowing tips to enhance your system’s security:
Keep your operating system updated with the latest security patches. Run
the system update utility at least weekly.
Keep your email program updated with the latest security patches. In addi-
tion, avoid opening email containing attachments, or opening files sent
through chat rooms, whenever possible.
Install a virus checker and keep it updated.
•Use the Standby button on your Telephony Modem to disconnect your PC
from the cable system when you are not using the Internet. Telephone ser-
vice is not affected by the Standby button; it is always on.
Avoid providing web or file-sharing services over your Telephony Modem.
Besides certain vulnerability problems, most cable companies prohibit run-
ning servers on consumer-level accounts and may suspend your account for
violating your terms of service.
Use the cable company’s mail servers for sending email.
•Avoid using proxy
software unless you are certain that it is not open for
abuse by other Internet users (some are shipped open by default). Crimi-
nals can take advantage of open proxies to hide their identity when breaking
into other computers or sending spam. If you have an open proxy, your ca-
ble company may suspend your account to protect the rest of the network.
If you connect your Telephony Modem to a wireless LAN, make sure you en-
able security and encryption on the wireless hub (for the same reason that
you should run only secured proxies). Consult the documentation and tech-
nical support of the wireless equipment provider for help.

Battery Installation and Replacement (TM402G, TM402H, and
TM402P models only)
These models of the Telephony Modem have the ability to provide battery backup
in the event of a local power loss. The battery backup is not intended to take the
place of AC power. Depending on the model, one or two lithium-ion batteries can
be inserted into the Telephony Modem. The TM402P (depicted at the left) supports
two batteries If you are only using one battery, it must be inserted into Bay 1. The
TM402G and TM402H (not shown) only has support for one battery. Use this pro-
cedure to install and to replace the backup batteries.
Action
1 Pull down on the two latches holding the battery door (on the bottom of the
Telephony Modem) and pull the door toward you. Set the door aside in a safe
place.
2 Hold each battery by its pull tab and insert the batteries into the bay. The
photo on the left shows the proper orientation. Batteries will not insert com-
pletely into the Telephony Modem if not oriented correctly. Remember, with
the TM402P if only one battery is being used, it must be inserted into Bay 1
as shown on the left.

Note: The Telephony Modem will not begin operating until you apply AC
power.
4 Replace the door. To do so, place the tabs of the battery door into the slot on the Tele-
phony Modem battery compartment. Rotate the door away from you until the two latch-
es snap back into place.
Note: Some Telephony Modem models use a Lithium-Ion battery pack. The
battery does contain precious material, there may be some benefit in recy-
cling. Please dispose of the battery responsibly and in accordance with local
ordinances.

wall-mount applications, you can mount the Telephony Modem with the indicators
facing upward (vertical) or to the size (horizontal).
Tools and Materials
For wall-mounted installations, make sure you have the following tools and mate-
rials before proceeding:
for mounting on drywall: Two 1/4” (6mm) drywall anchors and a Drill with
1/4” (6mm) bit
for mounting on plywood or studs: two #6 x 1.5” (38.1 mm) self
tapping
screws (included); the head diameter should be approximately
1/4”
(6 mm)
and a drill with a 1/8” (3mm) bit
screwdriver (flat-blade or Phillips, depending on what kind of screws you
use)
wall-mount template (included with the Telephony Modem Quick Installation
Guide)
transparent tape (for temporarily securing the mounting template to the
wall)
Location
Always position the Telephony Modem:
within 4 feet (1.3 m) of an AC outlet. The power cord must reach the outlet
without stretching and without adding extension cords.
near a cable outlet (to avoid long cable runs).
Note: When mounting the Telephony Modem on drywall, try to position the Te-
lephony Modem so at least one of the screws are fastened to a stud. This
may prevent the Telephony Modem from pulling out of the wall in the fu-
ture.
To prevent overheating your Cable Modem, do not block the ventilation
holes on the sides of the unit.

Wall-mounting instructions
1 Print out the Telephony Modem Wall Mounting Template.
2 Position the mounting template on the surface where you intend to mount
the Telephony Modem and secure in place with transparent tape.
3 Drill holes through the template in the specified locations for the mounting
screws. After drilling holes, remove the template from the surface.
4 If using drywall anchors, set them into the wall. Then, drive the screws into
the wall leaving a gap of about 1/8” (3 mm) between the screw head and
the wall. If not using anchors, just drive the screws.
5 Orient the Telephony Modem with the indicator lights facing up or right, as
desired. Slip both mounting slots (in the back of the Telephony Modem) over
the screws, then slide the case down until the narrow end of the keyhole slot
contacts the screw shaft.
6 Proceed to Connecting the Telephony Modem

Desktop mounting instructions
1 Position the Telephony Modem so that:
air flows freely around it
the back faces the nearest wall
it will not fall to the floor if bumped or moved
2 The TM402A and TM402B have an oval foot on the side to provide stability
in the event that the Telephony Modem is positioned vertically on a surface.
If you want to stand the Telephony Modem up on its side, pull the oval foot
out slightly, twist the foot (as shown in the image to the left), and place the
Telephony Modem in the desired location.
